    If you live in a northern clime, having your house and your driveway facing south is nice in the winter.

    My house faces north and my neighbors across the street always have a nice clean and dry driveway, where mine is packed with snow and ice.

      As someone who’s had both, it’s not as bad as I thought it would be. You have to keep on top of it. Don’t let snow sit for a few days. And get a good floor scraper to break up ice.

      A positive to having a north facing house: my garage stays cooler in the summer.
